Glasgow: The second in line to the British throne visited the Commonwealth Games on Monday, and he brought along a few of his relatives. Prince William and his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, watched gymnastics and boxing with Williams' younger brother Harry. And Prince Edward, William and Harry's uncle and son of Queen Elizabeth II, brought his family at the table tennis competition.
"It's a game that you need to sit close to in order to appreciate the speed and the skill," Prince Edward said as he watched Nigeria beat India 3-1 in a team bronze medal match.
He said he doesn't own a table at home, but that could change."That was one of reasons why I got my children here, as an opportunity to introduce them to a couple of sports that they might not otherwise have known. So perhaps in the future," Prince Edward said. Queen Elizabeth officially opened the games last week and visited some events and athletes the following day.
